[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]

A rapier drawn pulled fresh from my side, a gothic victorian cathedral lit by candlelight, the moon streams by, the trees are idle as the wind whistles and I feel those familiar thistles prick me-

[Verse 2]

A thrust of force, a skewering discourse as I lunge and careen side to side, a harrowing hell as slashes fell in rapid succession, a stalwart's mission to divide, to dissent and repent for the failings-

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]

Hunkering down in the militant mounds we built to divide the field, a criers call as the battles begun, I clung to my chest as we fell to unrest, I felt a distress knowing, just knowing, the end was nearing, out in the clearing we burnt-

[Instrumental]

[Pre-Chorus]

Cuts, shallow cuts, some deeper than most, a war-torn ghost of a haunted plane turned to death, a war-torn fall as the bodies were slain, they fell, they fell one, then two, then them all-

[Chorus]

A battalions barrage on a beautiful barge as the ships came into dismay, the strategic decision, go turn to division was true, it grew, it's growing anew, the barrage, the barrage! (Barraged by you)-

[Chorus]

A battalions barrage on a beautiful barge as the ships came into dismay, the strategic decision, go turn to division was true, it grew, it's growing anew, the barrage, the barrage! (Barraged by you)-

[Post-Chorus]

We've been barraged (barraged by the weight of the world) it's a mirage (we're burning, burning)

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]

There are no victors when the Richter's scale turns towards you, as bombs burst and the earth shakes, the quakes grow in resonance, a resonant sound as towns fall, I'll fall, I'll fall with them-

[Pre-Chorus]

Cuts, shallow cuts, some deeper than most, a war-torn ghost of a haunted plane turned to death, I'll die, I'll die (die, I died!)

[Chorus]

A battalions barrage on a beautiful barge as the ships came into dismay, the strategic decision, go turn to division was true, it grew, it's growing anew, the barrage, the barrage! (Barraged by you)-

[Chorus]

A battalions barrage on a beautiful barge as the ships came into dismay, the strategic decision, go turn to division was true, it grew, it's growing anew, the barrage, the barrage! (Barraged by you)-

[Post-Chorus]

We've been barraged (barraged by the weight of the world) it's a mirage (we're burning, burning)

[Instrumental]

[Outro]

Ba-ba-ba-ba(Barrage), Ba-ba-ba-ba(Barrage),

Ma-ma-ma-ma(Mirage), Ma-ma-ma-ma(Mirage),

Ba-ba-ba-ba(Barrage), Ba-ba-ba-ba(Barrage),

Ma-ma-ma-ma(Mirage), Ma-ma-ma-ma(Mirage),

[Instrumental]

was true, it grew, it's growing anew, the barrage, the barrage! (Barraged by you)-

[Post-Chorus]

We've been barraged (barraged by the weight of the world) it's a mirage (we're burning, burning)

[Instrumental]

[Outro]
